    These are my new favorite denim shorts. I ordered 2 different sizes because of the reviews. I ordered one size up and the other 2 sizes up from my actual size with the intention of returning the one that didn’t fit. They both fit, so I’m keeping them!!

    Slim Fit

    Slim fit mid thigh jean shorts. I like the darker wash, it can be dressed up or down. This fit true to my usual Levi’s size. 27. I’m 5’6, and vary between 125-130.

    They run too small!

    a month ago
    I am normally a size 28 in non stretch or low stretch denim from Levi. I order these shorts in Broken Midnight Wash in the size 28. As soon as I opened the package I knew they were too small. I even double checked the size because I thought they accidentally sent a 26 instead of a 28, but nope, it sure was a 28. I went ahead and tried them on anyway and they were so tight! They run so small! at least the pair I tried. They give me a slight muffin top and feel super stiff. Also it kind of flattens my butt. I will have to exchange them for at least a size 30 to get the same fit at the model in the picture. For reference I am 5’8 and weigh 140 lbs. my waist size is a true 28, and hips are 38.

    Ich wollte dir Hose lieben

    10 months ago
    Die Verarbeitung wirkt hochwertig, allerdings ist der Hosenschnitt für meine Körperfigur leider nicht gemacht, in 26 passt die Hose perfekt an der Teile, aber schneidet an den Oberschenkeln ein und in 27 passt sie an den Oberschenkeln, aber führt leider dazu, dass die Hose an der Taille leider unschön absteht.

    Misleading pictures of product. The material is not worn it but rather a matte blue color. The stitching isn't the same color either. Returned.
